Default Wipers won't stop

'81 with pulse wipers. Am I looking at a controller or a switch issue?

I can hold the switch down and the wipers will stop and park. As soon as the switch is released the wipers start again.

Look for a very recent thread on this very topic--something about "spontaneous wipers". There's a nice post from Willcox showing how you can run a jumper wire or two at the controller to turn it into a non-pulse system. Alway on operation is a common result of a failed controller.

Thanks for the reply Swamp. I have a jumper that I am going to put in to get the wipers working. I was afraid that it would be the controller. I've replaced it once already. That part sure didn't last long.
